ABSTRACT: Recent observations have shown a positive correlation between rotating flow and higher rain rates associated with mesoscale convective organization. The ability of convection to enhance rotation can be understood through the direct effects of vortex
stretching and convective heating, but the reverse influence of rotation on convection is more complicated and indirect. Multiple physical mechanisms can lead to enhanced convection associated with mesoscale potential vorticity (PV) anomalies, including isentropic
uplift, mesoscale pressure perturbations, boundary layer pumping, moisture advection, and interactions with larger scale environmental flow. These mechanisms are not mutually exclusive, leading to complex vertical motion patterns that are sometimes difficult
to ascribe to any single factor. This talk will explore these mechanisms in African Easterly Waves (AEWs) which are broad, weakly rotating systems in the tropical Atlantic. AEWs contribute substantially to the total rainfall over the tropical Atlantic and
Caribbean and also serve as the precursor disturbances for 85% of major hurricanes. The relationships between PV, moisture, and convective organization are examined using aircraft observations from the NASA 2006 NAMMA (NASA African Monsoon Multidisciplinary
Analysis) and 2022 CPEX-CV (Convective Processes Experiment - Cabo Verde) field campaigns and idealized modeling. Observations show that deep convection is organized into different regions within AEWs associated with higher mid-level moisture and PV interacting
with the environmental flow. Idealized modeling experiments show that boundary layer pumping associated with the rotating flow is weak in AEWs, but becomes progressively more important with increased rotation and smaller circulations. A positive feedback between
rotation and rainfall, in which PV promotes convection that further amplifies the PV through convective heating, becomes more effective with increased rotation and can lead to cyclogenesis and hurricane development. </div>

ABSTRACT: Our emphasis on distinct tropical cloud types has evolved over the decades with advancements in our understanding, especially of the complex links between the convective scale and larger scales. Early undilute plume views of tropical convection emphasized
deep cumulonimbi and their associated latent heating as a fundamental component of the ascending branch of the Hadley cell. Later, emphasis on tropical shallow and congestus clouds increased as we better grasped the acute sensitivity of tropical convection
to water vapor in the free troposphere, prompting major reconsiderations for how to represent moist convection in numerical models. In this context, we advocate for revisiting the role of stratiform and anvil clouds: we argue that these clouds play an essential
role in convective-scale dynamics in the tropics through their longwave radiative forcing. The magnitude of longwave radiative forcing relative to latent heating within these clouds is very large, significantly affecting both buoyancy and circulation. It increases
moist entropy and suppresses evaporatively driven mesoscale downdrafts, resulting in greater upward motion per unit precipitation. This effect fosters growth of the parent convective system, constituting a positive feedback. The radiative forcing of these
clouds, which are much larger and longer-lived than their parent deep convective elements, acts as an important link between the convective scale and larger scales. Hence, while stratiform and anvil clouds are indeed biproducts of deep convection, they should
also be recognized as active players in tropical organized convection. Consequently, any comprehensive model or parameterization of tropical convection must account for the bidirectional forcing between deep convective systems and their attendant stratiform
and anvil cloud signatures.</div>
